Guys here on youtube pulling down the Kings lithiums are finding strong proof the cells are second hand.

Thanks for the review. Whilst im sure the Kings battery is good for the price, I'm planning on using the Renogy batteries on an install probaly later this year. Ive noticed that other battery manufacturers are now able to considerably reduce the footprint size of their batteries. Do you know if Renogy will be following suit in the near future?

That was really helpful as I contemplated buying the Kings 300 amp hour one not being aware of the other brand you compared it to.( knowing they had a 2000 life cycle and 2 year warranty) Having said that, I see iTechworld is selling a 240 amp hour lithium XP Pro for a very similar price and wondered where the difference is between their XP Pro lithium batteries and say either one of the 2 you just made the comparison video of. I be very keen to find out your thoughts and read your reply 🙏 Plus one other question I have about adding a different lithium battery of unequal size ( I have requested Voltaic in Perth to build me a custom 240 amp hour portable lithium battery box which has everything included such as a Redarc 40 amp Bc-DC charger, a Inverter and Lithium battery charger plus a bunch of different power outlets and input outlets for solar - the system is working perfectly fine but wanted to add an additional battery as I run a lot of 12 volt stuff off that and use up on a daily basis almost 60% of the capacity and that’s after my 300 Watt solar blankets have supplied additional power to the batteries) So basically not knowing what lithium batteries they used other then knowing it is 2 x 120 amp hours connected together to make it 240 amp hours total) So m question is: What are the pitfalls of adding another lithium battery from a different company ( if any) and can I add say another lithium battery of any size ( even say one like the kings lithium variety and perhaps later on add another one of a different brand again if need be ? Obviously the charging will be limited to the amount the BC DC charger can handle ie, 40 odd amps and knowing if I would be on mains power that I could fully charge the whole system should the usage exceed the power input etc etc Any advice- or thoughts on this? I know it’s not ideal or something but need a temporary solution until I can get the $$ together for someone to help me build a new ( ideally portable lithium system that I can take anywhere in any Car or Caravan since if it’s build in- I can’t recoup my money any other way- which is why my current battery box is one of a kind and unique and extremely useful with the only issue being that it is heavy to carry around 🤣🤣 Anyway thanks for the video and possible any advice on my predicament 🤷‍♂️👍😎 Cheers Jim

Hey mate, I will look at doing a review with the Itech world battery one day soon, thanks for the suggestion In regards to adding batteries together it isn’t recommended to use different brand/make/model of battery. The reason being they have a different internal resistance and power will be drawn more and charge more to the battery with the lowest resistance. Another video idea as there if a lot involved in that too! Hope this had helped! Always happy to have a yarn on the phone if you ever need you can book a call on the website www.zerogrid.com.au

Itech stuff is far superior to either these, the Renogy battery here is bang for buck with build quality much better than Kings stuff, plus there's strong evidence Kings batteries have second hand cells.

@@zerogridaustralia thank you 👍 very helpful to know 😊

[@AussieAdventurer]

@@johnussss ohh 😮 that actually makes sense if you think about the price difference between them and other similar brands I guess 🤔👍

[@johnussss]

Where did you see iTECH240X for a price similar to either of these batteries, I'd buy Itech if I could afford them, purchased 2 x these Renogy batts for under $900 each on special from Zero Grid as my lead acids are close to death and I'm desperately broke living off-grid, have not seen the iTECH240X for less than &1,500 and are commonly $1,699

at the moment the 100 ah kings battery is 299 where the 200 ah is 699 . would i save money buying 2 100ah compared to 1 200

@@bigredinfinity3126 someone said once- better to have 2 batteries in case one fails- makes sense right- ont the other hand it’s space that’s taken up soooooo 🤷‍♂️ what works best for you? I would buy 2 to be honest if space and weight is no issue
